PRB: "File Modified Outside Source Editor" Message when SavingLast reviewed: December 15, 1997Article ID: Q174942 |
The information in this article applies to:
SYMPTOMSOne of the following dialog boxes appears whenever you open or save a file in Visual InterDev:
This file has been modified outside of the source editor. Do you want to reload it? -or- A more recent version of the file 'Yourfile.htm' has been saved to the Web by '' on '<datetime>'. Do you want to replace this version with your file? <Yes> <No> CAUSEThis behavior is usually caused by locating your project files on the Web server and not in a separate working directory (see the InfoView topic, "Microsoft Visual InterDev Architecture" for information on project files vs. Web files). For example, when creating a new Web project, typing "c:\inetpub\wwwroot\" into the "Location" text box in the "New\Web Project Wizard" dialog box puts the project files in the same location as the Web files. To determine if this is the case, select the "FileView" tab to see if you have any files with a .dsp, .dsw, or .opt extension. If these files show up in your project, your project files are in the same location as your Web.
RESOLUTIONCreate a new project and enter a local folder in the "Location" dialog box (for example, "C:\my VID Projects"). After Visual InterDev creates the new project, add the Web files from the original project to the new project, using the "Add Files ..." command.
STATUSThis behavior is by design.
